I am a real "powerhouse", that's plain to see. I break down food and release energy. I am the...
Chloroplast
Mitochondria
Nucleus
Cell Membrane
I collect molecules and make them more complex. I store these molecules or send them into the cytoplasm or out of the cell. I process the proteins produced by the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and ribosomes. I am the...

Central Vacuoles
Golgi Apparatus
I am found only in plant cells. I am the outermost part of the plant cell. I am make of a specialized sugar called cellulose. I provide support and protection and give plants their shape. I am the...

Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER)
Nucleus
Golgi Apparatus
I am the "brain" of the cell and I control all the activities of the cell. I am located in the cytoplasm, but you would not find me in prokaryotic cells. I am the...
Nucleus
Ribosomes
Cell Membrane
Mitochondria
We direct the genetic information of the cell. We are made of DNA and found in the nucleus, usually in pairs. We are the...

Chromosomes
Ribosomes
We build proteins in the cell. We can be found in several places in the cell, including in the cytoplasm and on the endoplasmic reticulum. We are...

Central Vacuole
Chloroplast
Mitochondria
I am a large storage unit in the cell. I am very large in plant cells and I store water, food and waste. I help support the plant. When I start to shrink due to lack of water, the plant may wilt. I am the...

Lysosome
Central Vacuole
When a cell needs energy, I take in nutrients, break them down and supply energy to the cell. I can also convert stored energy in the cell to food. I am a...
